I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

⚡️US senators introduce bipartisan sanctions bill targeting Russian oil profits.
The Decrease Russian Oil Profits (DROP) Act would impose targeted sanctions on anyone dealing in Russian oil, effectively barring them from the U.S. financial system.

This is... disturbing.

The media needs to stop writing headlines like “The CDC changes course on vaccines and autism” and “The CDC defends measles response”.
NONE of this is coming from legitimate scientists at the CDC.
ALL of it is coming from RFK Jr.

Zero intelligence secrets, sources, or methods are put at risk by showing a video of a boat exploding, or of shipwrecked people clinging to boat pieces hit by a missile and exploding.
Such a video reveals absolutely nothing about how the US identified that boat, located it, or chose to attack it.
